You Are, musically, is a lot more... danceable than this though.

Re: Infallible
Guys. Is that first line in the chorus similar to Christine Ag^^*&&$'s "Beautiful"?
Edit: I decided to read the whole thread and find that this has been covered. Umm, yeah.

This isnt working for me at all.
I keep hearing that Christina Aguelera melody.

Re: Infallible
This song does not come anywhere near You Are. You Are is heavy and atmospheric. Get that shitty Aguilera chorus outta here .

Re: Infallible
That's because it never forgets the groove. It's got that funk all the way through, whereas the "Infallible" chorus (even though I like it) unravels the groove and becomes a straight rock song. That return to the original riff doesn't totally redeem the problem, but it's crucial because it reminds us that the song was based on some groove even if it didn't stay there.Juvenal wrote:You Are, musically, is a lot more... danceable than this though.

Re: Infallible
Tbf, "You Are" isn't half as heavy as it could've been, and Matt's drumming decisions were very strange for a heavy song. I love it, but there are different issues with it.Vindicator wrote:This song does not come anywhere near You Are. You Are is heavy and atmospheric. Get that shitty Aguilera chorus outta here .

Re: Infallible
The main guitar riff in this song employs the same chord progression as "electrocute" by Type O Negative. That's cool.

I like the fact that Ed's high register has all the nasal quality of Yield here.

Re: Infallible
The only similarity I can hear is that "infallible" is a similar word in a similar place in the chorus to the word "beautiful" in the Aguilera song. No melody similarity at all.dimejinky99 wrote:This isnt working for me at all.

Re: Infallible
The delivery is similar. It's totally the song I was thinking of when I first heard the chorus I just wasn't sure. I'm also hearing a little of a sitcom melody (hear we go again) like Full House or something. It's just cheesy all the way and I keep listening to force myself to like it.harmless wrote:The only similarity I can hear is that "infallible" is a similar word in a similar place in the chorus to the word "beautiful" in the Aguilera song.

I agree with you about You Are that it could have been even heavier, but like you said, it doesn't forget that groove. Which is why I love that song.

Re: Infallible
Cool. I just think give this song time (time away if you have to) and try to approach it for what it is, rather than what you wanted it to be.Vindicator wrote:The delivery is similar.

I wasn't thinking of that at all, and now you've ruined it. Thanks.Vindicator wrote:The delivery is similar.

The song rips off Type O Negative's Electrocute more than Xtina. Trust.
